Main Disc. Thread - Khan Black: The Crucible (Custom Core Now Available!)

I’ve only ever seen it officially recommended to run one cycle per stage. If at the end of that cycle you feel you need more before proceeding, continue doing what you’re doing.

Old tech in certain titles were scripted to let you know when it was good to move to the next stage if I remember correctly, I don’t think that’s been removed.

It has popularized on the forum to run certain things more than one stage however, and the idea has merit. I can say that running Khan Black ST1 for multiple cycles was necessary for me and helped greatly with the corresponding stages, but that was a choice I made for myself.

I could have missed something from Saint or Fire though, I don’t read everything on here.

This is consistent with what I know as well.

Particularly on the first time listening to a multi-stager.

I ran KB1 from Nov 8th until Jan 5th, which according to my quick glance at my calendar is about 3 cycles and about a week. I didn’t factor in rest days so without mining through my journal that I was logging in at the time, I’ll say 3-4 cycles.

Each of the cycles thereafter have been singles, having just completed my run of KB4 the other day.

I read the above posts from the most recent 10 hours or so.

In general, I think one way to think about this is to start by checking the support articles for the current recommendations.

What I’ve done in the past with multi-stagers is the run them for a minimum of 30 days, perhaps even 45 days. To be very specific, I start DR on January 1, then at February 1 I might proceed to stage 2. Or maybe I’d continue stage 1 until February 15. NOTE: this is what I did, and that was BEFORE the ZP build.

I would encourage people to consider running the stages in the order as recommended in the support articles and/or product pages.

@AnswerGroup any thoughts on when KB might be getting it’s NSE update in the current Mysteries sub-season?

Looking to build a custom with KB4 & Paragon Sleep (also hinted at the fact that Fire is working on that, I think)

Knowing an estimated (but not 100% reliable, don’t worry I understand the process) time-frame would be really helpful!

That’d be nuts. Khan already got updated right?

Yes, it has.

Just keep in mind, that it could also be Stage1 blooming that brought the healing, not Stage 2.

I noticed a few subs delivering the results weeks after I stopped listening to them.

For me, it was the third cycle of Stage 1 that brought the freedom of porn temptations I sought. I felt like increasing loop duration from 3-5 minutes up to 15 minutes. And that’s what did the job.

KB with NSE would be amazing. I could use that this year as it’s looking more likely that I go through all the stages.

Do you also think it might be possible if someone did 2 cycles of Khan black stage 1 and maybe did not get full healing but while listening to stage 2 got the healing he wanted?

The objectives of the stages are to different, I’d say. But blooming can still happen weeks after you stopped listening to stage 1.

For me it made a major difference that I listened to the full 15 minutes on my third cycle after two cycles of only 3 minute loops.
Saint confirmed that each sub contains 4 stages, each building upon the previous one.
So basically you get the same content 4 times but each time with more depth. So for me, I guess, there was something in the later stages that I needed.

So, I would at least advice, to start low but increase listening time over the 2 cycles, as long as recon doesn’t get to strong.
If you don’t get the results you wanted after 2 cycles and switched to stage 2 nevertheless, blooming could do the rest, or you could decide to come back to stage 1 after tye cycle.

day 7 of the washout,the last few days ,sexual energy has been firing up strongly…

at day 5,I was fired up,excited,energetic…having a really strong sexual presence…the Hunter vibe is really strong…mixing with primal aggressiveness and wildness…just felt like there is no bound to me…self worth,self efficiency is strongly felt…
at day 6,calm down a little bit,but I could still felt the undercurrent streaming…ready to attack at any moment…I felt much more self control…like a wild animal ambushing the prey…

at day 7,today,I feel this energy rising up again…this raw sexual presence energy seems just always there…when I look,naturally my eyes will just show this hunter ‘s eye shape…energy coming out from them……

it seems my body is still adjusting to this new found reservoir of energy…I guess there will be more to come… :grinning:

Can i stack stage 1 and 2, i have ran stage one for one cycle already?

Not a good idea. I did that with Dragon Reborn . It wasn’t fun

But these 2 stages are like 2 different titles. Stage one heals sexuality and stage 2 is about purifying the energetic system.

Technically, yes, you can; but I might wait until after you feel you’ve reached a plateau with stage 1. Actively processing and growing with both at the same time, doesn’t make much sense. Like actively doing 4th and 5th grade in school at the same time. You’ll probably learn more and faster by mastering 4th grade first.

But after you’ve pretty much grasped 4th grade and are actively working through 5th grade, there’s nothing wrong with going back to those 4th grade books to review and consolidate.

So, that’s why I would say wait until you’ve plateaued on stage 1.
